There is no shortage of every variety of zombie apocalypses in gaming, but Second Chance Heroes (Rocket City Studios, iOS, 69p) is a dual-stick shooter (one for movement, one for attacking) that puts a fresh spin on its rotting corpse. The protagonists are historical figures – magical Cleopatra, chainsaw-wielding Abraham Lincoln, etc – cloned for battle by a prescient history teacher. And it's not all blood and guts, as the aforementioned educator realises that the undead eat brains to stave off boredom, so they can be distracted with a disco or other forms of entertainment. Some violence is required, and the addition of a multiplayer mode provides some welcome help with the huge waves of foes, but it's a shame no one thought to include Winston Churchill and his fiery cigar of doom.
